This is a time lapse I made of an entire shoot. I am going to start doing this for everything I shoot. This is a 3- hour shoot lapsed into 2 minutes.

I am 39 years old, and married with three daughters.  I am formally trained in lighting and retouch.  I love working in silver, although I have gone almost totally digital at this point.  I have a quiet, slow moving style that is very light- dependent, so I spend almost as much time directing my lighting assistant as I do my subject.  Respect is a big deal for me, and before I start shooting I discuss where the line is with my subject, and do not cross it.  Toe it, maybe, but not cross it.

Rates:

I ask $90 for a studio session. This includes up to 3 wardrobe changes, and at least 30 minutes of shooting per wardrobe change, but I will keep shooting until I get at least one great image per wardrobe. I will do basic editing on 3 images of your choice per wardrobe, which you will choose before you leave. That day I will post these images to a private passworded gallery on my website where they will live for at least a year. I can also do full retouch on hair, skin, eyes, teeth, and figure for $25 per image, however this will take another 2 days. You can download these images or order prints through my website at very (I feel) reasonable prices. I can take payment by cash or check, all payment is due before you leave the studio. Hair and make up styling is not included. I can do basic comp cards for an additional $25, and print them at industry standards for $100 for 50 cards. I cannot do zed cards.

My requirements for TF:

TF is is not preferred. If I contact you to shoot then it is assumed I am offering TF. If I feel that you can benefit my art or fashion portfolio then I will offer TF. I will let you know this up front and not try to spring a charge on you last minute

For a TF shoot I believe that trade is trade, and we will both be putting in equal effort, and expecting equal results. See above for how I operate, (3 wardrobe changes, etc...) however in a TF shoot I will also make an edit from our work. I will email you those you choose plus the ones I choose, (usually around 15 additional, unless they are exceptional in which case I will have more) fully retouched and shiny- like, within about two weeks, depending on my workflow.  (Paid work always goes to the top of the queue.)  I will of course share anything else I use in the future (if for some reason I go back through and decide on a second edit or something) so that you always have access to what I am using.  The email will contain 750 px long @ 72 dpi jpgs with my footer watermark for use on the web.  You can purchase non watermarked prints, and full res jpgs through my website.

NEVER EVER will I give you access to the entire shoot.  That's like airing my dirty underwear in public and it will not happen.
